Titanium-stabilized ultra-low carbon steels are often used in surfacequalitycritical applications and also susceptible to cloggingproblems in the casting process. The Automated Steel CleanlinessAnalysis Tool (ASCATTM), based on computer-controlled scanningelectron microscopy, was used to quantify the content andcompositions of inclusions present in the steel. The effects of alloyaddition timing at the RH degasser and of tundish slag compositionon cleanliness in these grades are discussed.
